We tested the hypothesis that levels of pentraxin high sensitivity C-reactive protein and pentraxin 3 might be correlated with cardiovascular complications in patients with essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera. High sensitivity C-reactive protein and pentraxin 3 were measured in 244 consecutive essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera patients in whom, after a median follow up of 5.3 years (range 0-24), 68 cardiovascular events were diagnosed. The highest C-reactive protein tertile was compared with the lowest (>3 vs. <1 mg/L) and correlated with age (P=0.001), phenotype (polycythemia vera vs. essential thrombocythemia, P=0.006), cardiovascular risk factors (P=0.012) and JAK2V617F allele burden greater than 50% (P=0.003). Major thrombosis rate was higher in the highest C-reactive protein tertile (P=0.01) and lower at the highest pentraxin 3 levels (P=0.045). These associations remained significant in multivariate analyses and indicate that blood levels of high sensitivity C-reactive protein and petraxin 3 independently and in opposite ways modulate the intrinsic risk of cardiovascular events in patients with myeloproliferative disorders.
